MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 243 Comprehensive Fanwai: Return to the old flowers (eight)
The torrential rains washed like a stream of palaces.
More than a dozen water columns with thick arms spewed out of the dark beast head at the top of the palace eaves.
Qin Nuo stood under the corridor, looking at the pavilions and shrouds shrouded in a mist of rain and rain.
Looking back at the report of Qianli Si just seen, he was in a very complicated mood.
There are ice basins in the four corners of Qianyuan Hall. The clear icebergs are carved into various beautiful landscapes and slowly melt in the sultry air in the room. There are jewel-like bottles inlaid on it, exuding an attractive luster.
Qin Nuo went to the east corner, and the ice basin carved into the tiger and howling moon had melted less than half.The original life-like tiger showed a hint of humor. A crescent-shaped glass bottle filled with golden liquid.
Soaked in ice, the whole bottle was cold.
The work of checking the "Fish Scale Atlas" is progressing slowly. This tedious and huge project involves too many aspects. Those family gates have engulfed and merged a lot of farmland in the past few decades, and certainly do not want to be shaken out. Compared with the north, the aristocratic gatekeepers in the south experienced war and were ransacked by the southern army. They were not saved, and they were particularly smooth to check.
Furthermore, although there are many officials who are good at numeracy, but there are few people who are good at it. Jiang Qingyun, who had been used before, was seriously ill because of his widow and took a break. The Ministry of Household Industry still wanted to urge people to return to work as soon as possible. However, after reading the report of Qianli Si, Qin Nuo knew that without the help of that wise wife, even Jiang Qingyun would have no use.
Fortunately, there are also Wen Miao and several young people. In the past few days, some officials from the Department of Gewu and the Ministry of Industry have been relocated. Next year's imperial examinations, it is imperative to increase the subject matter of grids.
Qin Nuo drank a glass, and the sweet juice slid down his throat, refreshing.
"Why did the emperor drink this hour?" Huo Youjuan came out of the side hall and saw Qin Nuo secretly making a difference here.
Qin Nuo smiled and took out another glass cup and poured a cup for her.
Huo Youjuan took a sip, sweet and very novel. After another sip, I recognized: "It was the mango from the southern tribute." The states that mainly produce mangoes are in Nanchenliu County, which has just been included in the category of tributes this year.
Huo Yousil has eaten a few, but this is the first time to make juice.
After drinking the mango juice in the glass, she turned her eyes to the iceberg next to it, and the colored glass bottles on it were shining brightly.
Qin Nuo took it with a smile and followed Huo Youjuan to taste a variety of fresh iced fruit juices.
The two screened their attendants and thought for themselves while discussing recent government affairs.
Since returning to Beijing, Qin Nuo found that Huo Yousil's grasp of political affairs was sometimes more precise than herself. Unlike the assistants who had been with her before, she and Qin Yun actually dealt with the national government for more than a year, and the level naturally advanced by leaps and bounds.
When Qin Nuo returned, Huo Yousil was thinking of retreating. After all, the old rules of the harem that could not be governed were still there.
Qin Nuo did not allow her to be lazy. Qin Hui had already rushed away, but she couldn't let the wife run away.
As for what harem is not allowed to do politics, it is pure nonsense. Prior to that, Queen Mother Huo had not handled government affairs for one year on behalf of Qin Cong. Which court dared to talk up?
From Qin Nuo's point of view, do what you can, and do it if you can't. It's unnecessary to guard people like thieves all day. A woman with ambitions and patience can't help it, and can even give you the feat of eternal ascension.
Huo Youchan is his future queen, so naturally it should be in power. This huge empire needs more talents to glow and heat in order to go better and faster.
"In the future, I will reform the administration of the government so that women can also enter the government." Qin Nuo drank sweet watermelon juice and laughed. "Dongbo doesn't all do well."
"The emperor's move is of course moral, but talented people are rare in the world's women's lockup in the boudoir. Dongbo is fortunate to have met the emperor." Huo Youren said.
"You can rest assured that I won't be too impatient. Find a chance to set up a women's college first to teach arts and science courses. If you have talents in the future, you can slowly promote and reuse them."
Qin Norton paused, and suddenly laughed again: "In fact, now, there are talents in the boudoir, but unfortunately it is buried in the inner house trivia, covering the light."
To Huo Youchan's surprised look, Qin Nuo laughed, "Wait for a helper in the next day, okay? You must be clever and alert before you can learn."
Huo Youchan opened her eyes wide, "There is such a talent, Youjuan would like to welcome him."
Qin Nuo laughed: "Be assured, but there will be good news in a few days. This matter, just like our family affairs, as long as we follow the trend, we will naturally take care of it, no need to worry."
Speaking of the relationship between the two, Huo Youjuan fluttered a rosy cheek and disappeared quickly.
Compared to the tediousness of political affairs, this matter is indeed smoothly reassuring.
Qin Nuo originally thought that setting up Huo Youjuan as the queen would attract opposition from some old officials in North Korea. After all, she was once the concubine of the emperor.
Unexpectedly, the small splash of opposition was surprisingly small.
It seems that the court is up and down, and the emperor Ken has given his face a big wedding thanks a lot, what? You say etiquette? rule? Let ’s go! Nothing is more important than the inheritance of the Emperor!
This can be considered an unexpected delight.
Huo Youjuan was still a bit shy when she first mentioned the matter, and she is about to marry her beloved. Any girl in the boudoir will be excited.
Compared to previous queens, who only had to follow the etiquette to be the mother of a country, Huo Youjuan was more involved in the preparation of the ceremony. The wedding date is set for January of next year. This is Qin Nuo's request, he really does not want to get married so soon. The marriage of the ancients was too early. Originally, I wanted to set the date later, but in the end, the impatienced courtiers jointly opposed it. As a result of the compromise between the two parties, half a year later, Qin Nuo will end his single life and officially enter the marriage hall.
After a period of practice, Huo Youjuan completely lost her shy mentality about her future wedding. She was very generous in preparing the entire ceremony and often discussed details with Qin Nuo.
"By the time we get married, I'll be back soon." Qin Nuoyao thought of his sister, full of envy.
Before returning to Beijing, Qin Nuo had also cared about his sister's family affairs, but Qin Qiao steadfastly asked: "Why do women have to be married? After being married, how boring it is to have a husband and a son. What is better than being happy now. "Then I couldn't wait to get out and play.
This idea is somewhat similar to the independent women of later generations.
Qin Nuo thinks about her sister's marriage, so don't worry. In fact, as Qin Yue's current status, even if you want to open the harem and raise a male pet, no one will criticize it.
"The princess's temperament is free and easy, and she has been suffocated in the palace for so long." Huo Youjuan laughed.
No matter what she thinks, it's fine to find someone who agrees with you and spends her whole life, or enjoy the honor and freedom for a lifetime. Anyway, the girl is still young, so you don't have to be so anxious to settle down. Just like Dongbo, these days are busy with business affairs, and occasionally ask her about Lin Jia, and also smile generously, why bother?
"When she has someone he wants, he will marry her."
"Maybe there is no need for the emperor to marry." Huo Youjuan suddenly smiled. "Speaking of it, more than a year ago, the thirteen princesses flipped through the collection of books, and also mentioned that the emperor Jing Yao had given her a marriage."
Qin Nuo was stunned. When Emperor Jing Yao was there, when did she marry her, and several of the princesses above did not turn to marriage.
"It was the year that Nan Chen was destroyed, but Xiandi wrote several letters to recruit General Bai Feiheng of Nan Chen." Huo Yousil reminded.
Qin Nuo quickly recalled that when Emperor Jing Yao also paid great attention to Nan Chen's sailors, he wrote to Bai Feiheng several times in writing, promising that if he had originally intended to surrender, he would be given the title of fierce title to Nan Chen and increase his rank. The main match, if Bai Feiheng is unwilling to continue, can also choose for his son-in-law, thirteen-year-old Bai Guangxi, the princess and several daughters under the emperor's knees. Sincerity is extreme.
When Bai Guangxi was thirteen years old ... Qin Nuo suddenly became a black line. At that time, it was only two years old.
Does my sister like Fang Yuan? For more than a year, it was Fang Yuan who escorted her, posing as herself, returning to Beijing, and presiding over the government. Qin Nuo was a little bit surprised and sad. As if the two closest people, they flew away away.
However, he had to admit that in fact, they were good together. Wait, no! They are cousins, they haven't been three generations away!
Qin Nuo tangled his face.
Huo Youjuan laughed: "Now that these are too far away. Who knows what will happen in the future. The letterhead that the princess sent back a few days ago also said that she would take advantage of the youth to take a boat trip out to enjoy the scenery overseas. I heard that it was far away In this country, there are blond people all over the land, and in some other countries, people with black hair and black skin. Different customs and scenery make people fascinated by thinking about it ... "
Speaking of exotic scenery, Huo Youjuan held her cheeks, her eyes brightened: "It's still thirteen days for Princess Thirteen. People don't want to be married."
Qin Nuo was startled. "What does it mean not to get married?"
"Because I will be under a lot of pressure after getting married." Huo Youjuan smiled bitterly, and a layer of anxiety floated between her brows. This is the future that is visible to the naked eye. If you cannot give birth to your son as soon as possible, you will be criticized by the courtiers. Nowadays, the blood pressure of the royal family is under heavy pressure. The emperor cannot find a nephew within three generations. The emperor's illness can scare and paralyze half of the court. It is no wonder that all the ministers are involved in the housework of the harem.
In the history of the previous dynasty, there were also many queens who had no children, as long as the concubines had children. But the two have decided on a two-person world, and the pressure has accumulated on their own.
Qin Nuo thought for a while: "It doesn't have to be a son. Even a daughter can inherit the throne, but the two of us must work hard to manage her political affairs for her."
"If there isn't even a daughter." Huo Youjuan was still worried, and there are many queens completely unknown in history.
"Isn't there a little princess of the emperor." Qin Nuo laughed.
He still looks forward to his future children, but if he has no fate, he will not be forced. In desperation, it was acceptable for the throne to return Qin Cong's blood.
Huo Youchan's mood was slightly relaxed, and she was under a lot of pressure, only because of the secret discussions in Beijing today. Since the establishment of the will, some honorable courtiers have been quietly worried that they have been in the palace for several years. God knows, the two are always innocent, okay.
A few days ago, even Huo Dong came to the palace to ask for a meeting, and he asked whether to choose a few beautiful and docile girls from Huo's house to help him. Huo Youchan was so annoyed that she even entered the period of premarital phobia.
Qin Nuo also knew about his old husband's entry into the palace, but he never thought it was for this stubble. I can only smile bitterly, and at the same time decide that before the big wedding, it is better to let Huo Dong come to the palace less.
But thinking of that little princess, she is now raised under Cui Yi's lap. Cui Wei's temperament, daughters who are too spoiled are easy to raise, and have to take a look someday.
***
Qin Nuo's beloved little princess is now inside Rui Guogong's ancestral home, holding her father's thigh, crying and going out to play.
"Does Ayue like to go out so much?" Cui Min held her daughter with a headache.
"Of course, that interesting young lady will still use a reed pole to make a slap." A Yue said with a fist, excited.
That day in Beizhuang, after two little girls got on a boat and picked a bunch of lotus flowers, Min Niang drew a few out of the reeds next to them to knit things. This was taught by Ye Rou, and it wasn't long before a little cricket came out.
After that, they were found by the girl ring searching around.
Min Niang generously gave the little sister-in-law to the little sister she had just met, and then went back to find her mother.
Cui Wei rubbed his forehead. It is time to find some lively playmates of the same age for his daughter. Although there are also a few little girls playing with him, they have been taught and respectfully in front of the host. A Yue obviously I don't like it.
Just thinking, the supervisor came to report, and the expected guest came.
Cui Wei smiled, gave his daughter to the nurse, slightly dressed up, and greeted out.
Entering the main hall, the man stood in the center, staring coldly at himself.
"Where is the man?" The expression on Chen Li's face could only be described with the word murderous.
Cui Wei is sure, if possible, he would like to pounce on and tear himself to pieces.
Raising his hand to signal that the servants in the hall are retreating, Cui Wei was not in a hurry to answer, so he sat down in the chair opposite him, and took the initiative in his own hands, he had enough time.
"What the nine sons are saying, I'm dumb, I can't understand."
"What conditions do you want to let go?" Chen Li clenched her fists.
Cui Wei raised his tea cup and ignored him at all.
Chen Li's eyes were red, but he was compelled to calm down: "You are also a high-ranking military general, and you start to work against a deep-house wife who has no power at all. Even if she is a first-class official, it is not easy to scapegoat of."
Cui Yan sneered, "Lack? This crime is a bit serious. Before, I heard that a family official's family member suffered a natural disaster on his way down the mountain and was unfortunately killed. But this is a matter of local knock, why bother you and me."
Chen Li took a long breath and suppressed the emotion of killing: "You hold people in your hands, don't you just want me to come, now I'm here and let people go."
"No, there are too many relatives and friends of His Highness Nine, I'm afraid I'm not enough here to dismantle Nanxiang Hou."
"I came here without telling anyone." Chen Li said coldly. He was telling the truth, this trip went out without even telling Chen Wei.
Cui Wei glanced at him, full of malice: "I just don't want to let people do what you can do?"
"You ..." Chen Li gritted his teeth, his fists clenched and released, and he finally lowered his posture.
"The woman's reputation is important. She will continue to be detained by you. How will she live in the future?"
Cui Wei smiled at him with a smile, and Man said, "So ... do I need to take responsibility?"
The vicious connotation of this sentence is far beyond anyone's limit. Chen Li's tense string finally broke. For a split second, his brain went straight to his head, his eyes were red, and he roared, fluttering up.
Cui Wei had been on guard for a long time, avoiding his attack on one side, clasped his wrists with his homeopathy, swept under his feet, and pressed people directly to the bench.
Chen Li raised his hand to block, although the harsh reality reminded him that Wu Gong was not his opponent at all. However, the difference in the value of force did not affect his determination to kill this person at all.
This kind of almost crazy momentum, Cui Wei could not hold him for a moment.
Annoyed by him, Cui Wei put his knee on his chest, picked up the ice bucket on the desk case, and fell head on his face with a split head.
The icy water immediately extinguished the anger with the ice cubes, Chen Li panted swiftly, glaring to suppress his own Cui Wei.
And Cui Yan stared at him without shyness, his eyes were fierce.
The two were close together, and Chen Li stared at this close-up face. It is undeniable that Cui Wei was very good. Looking closer, the eyelashes were longer and the eyes were deeper, like a natural section. Merry love.
It's a pity that no matter how outstanding his appearance is, he only makes him deeply disgusted. There is no one in the senior ranks of the Five Guards who hates him the most. This was the case in the past, and even more so now.
In the tense atmosphere, Chen Li stared at him.
For a moment, a smile suddenly appeared, and the breath was gone.
"Want to be here or to the back bedroom?"
"What?" Cui Wei did not respond for a moment.
In his surprised eyes, Chen Li looked up slightly.
Cui Min was taken aback by the warm touch from the corner of his lips, and he jumped conditionedly. Like a frightened rabbit, he took two steps back, immediately realized that he was gazed, and stared at Chen Li fiercely.
After getting rid of the restraint, Chen Li didn't get up, just lazily continued to lie on the bench, the water droplets dripped along the hair, and even the light of the eyes was with an ambiguous wetness. It's like the shocking contact just now, soft and warm.
It's a pity that the words he said were not soft at all. He sneered: "Are you thinking about this? It's such a mess? Don't you dare to come to the door? Or ..."
Chen Li smiled harshly, "Do you like being caught by me? Oh, then I choose to be here."
Cui Wei's face turned red for a moment, not because of shyness, but simply by being angry.
It stands to reason that the man in front of him is from the birth of Emperor Nan Chen and was taught by Pei Yi from an early age.
He really couldn't bear it, he was blind, why he liked this guy. Although he abandoned literature and martial arts, the family history of the Cui family since childhood, coupled with the careful education in the palace, has led him to live a life of nobleness and elegance. Coupled with his natural cleanliness, no one has ever dared to be so presumptuous in front of him.
For Ren Jinglei's mind, if it wasn't for the moment at the gate of the city, when he found that this man was going to die, he rushed forward regardless of the fact that he didn't even know that he had this feeling to him.
In the past few years, during the battle between Nan Chen, he often thought of him, thinking of his cheerful smile under the sun. But he only thought that this person was a simple cherishment or an appreciation of outstanding talents ...
After hating Nan Chen for his whole life, the one who eventually fell in love was Nan Chen's prince. Cui Yan felt a pain in his face.
I hate myself for not being upset, I can't let go of this relationship, and I hate this person for being cruel and sharp.
I know that there is no hope ...
The author has something to say: The next chapter is still the drama of these two people. If you don't like it, you can skip it.
